Nice post dude, gettin smart wiv the vids 
... all ya need to do if your embedding a YouTube vid is use the URL from the embed code (highlighted in red, either will work as they are the same), not the url to the YouTube page:
EMBED CODE: <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/eaP8vkt9YaE&hl=en"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/eaP8vkt9YaE&hl=en" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>
Then just copy an image url from somewhere, and set the width to 380 and height to 320...
